What Is Nifedipine ER 60mg?
Nifedipine ER 60mg is an extended-release tablet that belongs to a class of medications called calcium channel blockers. It works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow to the heart. This helps reduce the workload on the heart and can decrease the frequency of angina (chest pain) episodes. The extended-release design allows the medication to be taken once daily.
